Students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) tend to struggle with reading comprehension, often resulting in difficulties with inference generation. While most of the previous research has focused on the product of comprehension, we report a preliminary validation of an experimental reading task in English to measure, by means of eye-movements, the time course of generating consistent and inconsistent inferences during reading. The task was tested with a group of 12 students with ASD (age range: 10-15) who showed accuracy differences between inference and control conditions. Participants spent longer reading in the inconsistent than control condition regarding go past times and second pass times and made more regressions into the target and post-target regions, but these differences were not significant.
自闭症谱系障碍(ASD)学生往往在阅读理解方面存在困难,通常导致推理生成方面的困难。虽然之前的大多数研究都集中在理解的结果上,但我们报告了一个用英语进行的实验性阅读任务的初步验证,该任务通过眼动来衡量在阅读过程中生成一致和不一致推理的时间进程。该任务在一组 12 名 ASD 学生(年龄范围:10-15 岁)中进行了测试,他们在推理和控制条件之间表现出准确性差异。参与者在不一致条件下的阅读时间比控制条件下的阅读时间要长,无论是首次注视时间还是二次注视时间,并且在目标和后目标区域的回视次数也更多,但这些差异并不显著。
